This IDD node works in conjunction with CPTEC/INPE to form the top level sites for what we are referring to as the IDD-Brazil, a network that currently includes UFRJ, CPTEC, USP, and UFPA. I believe that the machine brisa.meteoro.ufrj.br is already functioning as a data ingest node for the UFRJ Meteorology Department. Are you proposing that the department wants an additional LDM node, or are you proposing that meteoro.cefet-rj.br act as replacement for brisa, or, perhaps, are you on a different UFRJ campus? The contact for the the UFRJ top level LDM/IDD node 'solon' is: David Garrana Coelho <address@hidden> Have you corresponded with David about your efforts? If not, please do so and CC Unidata User Support <address@hidden> on your email exchanges. If David is, for some reason, not able to help you get data feeds from solon setup on meteoro.cefet-rj.br, we will be happy to do so. > Guilherme O.
